Hi guys --

I just moved back to Jacksonville in October, after being away from Florida for ten years.  I'm originally from Gainesville and have been living in the West Coast/Northeast for the past decade.  I'm *THRILLED*  to be back in Florida and Jacksonville has been awesome so far.  Eager to contribute to the discussions and excited to meet you guys.

Jason :)

Thanks, guys.  Nope, don't fish or kayak -- yet.  But what's the point of returning home if I'm not going to learn?  Really trying to pick up fishing... :) Any tips?

Go to the boardwalk in San Marco, River Road, and go fish with those guys. Friendly and they'll teach you a thing or two. Great place to hang out.

I've got a two seater and my best spots are Downtown under the brand new No Fishing signs that was never before Waterways. Need the fishing license for both on shore and on the water. Give me a call.  904-434-0839
